The Wiggles

The second reason we were in Vancouver was of course the Wiggles. I purchased the farewell concert tickets for a very special Pearl and Momma date. Three of the original four Wiggles are retiring after 21 years of touring so this was our chance and we seized it!

Pearl was first introduced to the Wiggles by her Uncle Wes and Auntie Jane in Sydney while we spent Christmas 2009 together. Pearl has always loved music and dancing so it was a great fit and we've been listening to them ever since. I don't think she fully understood what we were doing or what a 'Wiggles Concert' entailed but by the start of the second song she was on her feet dancing and singing the entire 90+ minute show. We had a ball, worth every penny, it was Wiggle-tastic, highly reccomended!

Special Note:
We were thinking about our close friend Nigel Baker the whole time, wish you could have been there with us!  We danced for you and sang our hearts out to 2 of your fav's - Dr. Nicker Bocker and Play your Guitar with Murray!
